Additional Information

In honor of the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings, the runners,
spectators, heroic first responders and rescuers at the scene, and the
city of Boston, the UCLA campus and surrounding community will come
together on Tuesday, April 23 to show our support for those affected by
the tragic events in Boston.

Upon hearing about the bombings at the Boston Marathon, there
were many reports of runners who finished the marathon and ran straight
to the hospital to donate blood to victims.

In symbolic fashion,
and to commemorate the victims of the bombings, we will be writing
letters to victims, their families, and first responders, and leading a
short route through campus ending near the UCLA Blood & Platelet
Center for a blood drive.

Please join us in honoring Krystle Campbell of Medford,
Massachusetts, 8-year-old Richard Martin of Boston, Massachusetts, and
Lu Lingzi of Shenyang, China, and the 176 who were injured by the
explosions.
